>I need to load a bunch of data (from a table) into a form INIT method (total number of values is no more than 10). I am considering loading this data into an array property of the form. Or add each data value as a property of the form (using thisform.addproperty(...))

I doubt if it makes a difference in memory. Unless the data is really array-like, that is, a variety of values for a single entity, I vote for separate properties. The ability to give meaningful names has a lot of value.
